The Hayward WG1052AVPAK2 is a two-pack of 8-inch round dual suction outlets for concrete pools, each with an anti-vortex grate and a dual-port body. The body takes a 2-inch FIP side port and a 1-1/2-inch FIP bottom port, so one part covers floor and wall plumbing layouts. The anti-vortex grate spreads suction across roughly 8.1 square inches of open area and is rated for up to 125 GPM on a floor install and 72 GPM on a wall install, depending on the sump and installation. It suits builders and owners replacing a full outlet assembly rather than a grate alone; VGB compliance depends on pairing it with an approved sump and frame, so check that before buying.

Owners and installers treat this as a straightforward replacement outlet that fits standard concrete pool plumbing. Most comments focus on the dual-port body and the anti-vortex cover; complaints center on fit with existing sumps and on the grate aging in sunlight.
This Hayward dual suction outlet is an 8-inch round main drain for concrete pools. It is sold as a 2-pack, and each outlet comes with an anti-vortex grate and a dual-port body. The body and grate are made of white ABS.
The body has a 2-inch FIP side port and a 1-1/2-inch FIP bottom port, which allows different plumbing layouts. It is used in new construction and when replacing a full outlet where a complete sump and outlet assembly is needed.
The cover open area is approximately 8.10 sq in. Approved flow depends on the installation: 125 GPM on a floor (horizontal) and 72 GPM on a wall (vertical). The outlet is VGB compliant when installed on an approved, compatible sump or frame following the manufacturer's instructions. Before installing, confirm that the port configuration and outlet style suit the job.
